Tube / Pipe Circumference Weld Joint Calculation
The following equation will determine the stress normal to a base where the loading is applied axially.
Normal Stress in Weld Base Area Formula
Where: | |
σ |
= Normal stress [MPa,psi] |
FZ |
= Applied axial force [N, lb] |
A |
= Throat are of weld [mm2,in2] |
Comparative Stress
Where: | |
= Comparative stress [MPa,psi] | |
= Normal stress [MPa,psi] | |
= Conversion coefficient of weld joint |
